Publisher's Summary

Only minutes after Abbie Elliot and her three best friends step off of a private helicopter, they enter the most luxurious, sumptuous, sensually pampering hotel they have ever been to. Their lavish presidential suite overlooks Monte Carlo, and they surrender: to the sun and pool, to the sashimi and sake, to the Bruno Paillard champagne. For four days they're free to live someone else's life. As the weekend moves into pulsating discos, high-stakes casinos, and beyond, Abbie is transported to the greatest pleasure and release she has ever known. In the morning's harsh light, Abbie awakens on a yacht, surrounded by police.

Something awful has happened - something impossible, unthinkable. Abbie, Winnie, Serena, and Bryah are arrested and accused of the foulest crime imaginable. And now the vacation of a lifetime becomes the fight of a lifetime - for survival.

Guilty Wives is the ultimate indulgence, the kind of non-stop joy-ride of excess, friendship, betrayal, and danger that only James Patterson can create.

I can usually tell now when I am going to really get immersed in an Audiobook. My attention seldom waivers and I become engrossed.This did NOT happen for me with Guilty Wives. It may have had something to do with the fact that I viewed the four Wives as superficial & lacking substance.The circumstances of their arrest and the plot generally did not generate the level of intrigue that I would have expected. I have enjoyed a number of Patterson's books but this wasn't one of them! The performance was okay but the South African accent portrayal was rather fragile.

This is the first book i have had by James Patterson,I just thought the read up looked so good,it was spot on.This story is really scary to think what if this did happen to you just a mini break abroad with a group of friends turns into a total nightmare,the narrator is superb her french accent just so makes it,this is what i love about audio books you get all the sounds and accents to all the characters brilliant,you are hooked from the start.

"Not a mystery"

This is 90% shawshank redemption and a 10% mystery, not what I expected, well narrated and not a bad read just a prison experience, with a hint of mystery not really enough. Therefore a disappointing patterson.

"slow burner"

It took a while to get into this audio book. I quite liked the story in the end and found myself rooting for Abby but if not for a determination to complete a book I would have left this book for a while. The narrator is good, she's easy to listen too and her accents are very believable. Not my favourite James Patterson book but worth a listen.

"A hard listen"

I chose this book because I usually love James Patterson books, plus I think that January Lavoy always gives a fab performance.However, I found this book very difficult to enjoy. The story is solid enough (although there appear to be a few things left unfinished at the end), as are the main characters; but there is a bit too much translating going on for my liking! I felt that it was overused and distracting. This is my least favourite of the James Patterson books that I have read/listened to...but nothing bad enough to stop me reading/ listening to many more of his novels:)

"A racy and thrilling read"

I picked up this book thinking I was going on a leisurely Fanta sea holiday to Monte Carlo and I was taken on the biggest rollercoaster ride I could ever imagine! The characters are beautifully portrayed by January Lavoy and the plot is thick with suspense. I will recommend this if you are seeking some escapism with some added thrills thrown in. However I will warn you that this book is not for the faint hearted. There will be moments you will be gripping your chair very hard and holding your breath. I could not put this down from the moment I started reading it.

Great narration, excellent story in short chapters that made it easy to listen to in "chunks". I like to listen for a few minutes before bed or in a break so was great for this.
